But the M40i MSRP also made no sense. Starting price just behind my old Macan GTS which is an infinitely better car, value, resale, etc.

Very happy with decision on SQ5. Not as flashy as the others but love the understated element to it.
The biggest issue with the SQ5 is the throttle lag. After 3 vehicles with the same engine and issue, it was a deal breaker when I was looking to replace my totaled S5 Sportback. It's too bad because I really wanted to like the SQ5.
